A focused population profile of Sherpa Khumbu, with modern genetic matches, ancestry modeling, and a World Genetics G25 heatmap.
Sherpa Khumbu is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Sherpa Khumbu with other modern populations in the database.
The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Sherpa Khumbu.
In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Sherpa Khumbu is Sherpa Rolwaling Himal. Other nearby references include Tibetan McLeod Ganj, Tibetan, Tibetan Shannan, and Sherpa West Bengal. This gives the Sherpa Khumbu profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.

The ancestral breakdown below loads the best-fitting World Genetics calculator for the Sherpa Khumbu average. It should be read as a model of deep ancestry components, while the closest-match table is the better guide to which modern populations are most similar in G25 space.
The heatmap gives the Sherpa Khumbu profile a geographic shape. Warmer areas mark regions where available modern reference populations sit closer to the Sherpa Khumbu average, while cooler areas represent more distant matches.
The closest non-self match in this World Genetics comparison is Sherpa Rolwaling Himal. Other nearby references include Tibetan McLeod Ganj, Tibetan, Tibetan Shannan, and Sherpa West Bengal.
In the current modern G25 reference set, Sherpa Rolwaling Himal is the closest listed match to the Sherpa Khumbu average after removing Sherpa Khumbu itself from the table.
The heatmap shows where modern reference populations are closer or farther from the Sherpa Khumbu G25 average, giving the closest-match results a geographic view.
